I have a PC's Limited 286/8 running Dosmerge.  You may need to get a bios
upgrade and a keyboard controller upgrade.  I used to have the revision numbers
that you need - but I can't find them right now.

If you call Microport, they can tell you what you need to run Dosmerge on your
system.  Then call PC's Limited and say "I need the bios upgrade version xxx
and the keyboard controller upgrade version xxx so that I can run Microport
Dosmerge".  When I did this, they sent me the upgrade at no cost.

With the upgrades, I had no difficulty running Dosmerge.

If you already have the correct versions of the bios and keyboard controller,
then -- I don't know what's wrong.
